Ann & Nancy Couldn't Match Stevie's Intake

i think Dave talking about that party in the 80s at Stevie's house where it was just Stevie and 1 (2) of the girls ... and (implied or not i can't remember) drugs was pretty tasteless

I didn't mind that because she was up to no good but this is a different story. She is not doing anything with these women but trying to be friends.

I read Ann and Nancy's book and did notice a propensity to blame others for their own choices ..even their own very tacky and expedient sell out as a 1980s LA hair band which clearly they had to have acquiesced to themselves.

If that was meant to be a dig at Stevie, I don't think Stevie would take it that way!

Hi all. A couple of posts back you guys were talking about Joe Walsh saying nasty stuff and Dave saying stuff about heavy partying.Where did you hear this?I thought I read every article about our girl but I must have missed some.I'd like to read them if anyone has a link.Thanks guys.And my view on this thread is that Stevie is just a total control freak.I mean she makes no bones about being a total drug addict-she even asked some interviewer if he wanted to see the hole in her nose-but SHE has to be the one who talks about it,not someone else without her permission.

I also am skeptical that Stevie and FM did more drugs than Heart, except for the fact that there were more members of FM with bigger hangers on. So there were more drugs in volume, but when you compare what was consumed by the individual people, I just don't buy that Stevie was a gigantic user compared to Ann and Nancy.

Who cares? It wasn't a competition! It was of its time. No big deal. Rock stars. Heavy partying. Money. Indulgence. No surprise. Anne just made an observation that Stevie had a strong constitution to take a large amount of cocaine. There was no agenda in revealing that.

Perhaps, I would assume that taking that comment in isolation. Cumulatively, I think she did have an agenda.

And who cares? Well, who cares about anything that is discussed here? We are not trying to solve the situation in Iraq on this board. This is a platform for discussion of the desultory, more often than not.

well I finally got through with Ann and Nancy's book and I have to say I love it. They freely admit they sold out.

What I really meant to say is that Stevie was not the focus of her book. But if you're going to write a book about your life, observations and experiences about/with other people are standard fare. That's what makes those books interesting!

I wish someone (other than Stevie) will write an extensive biography about Stevie. In the right hands, it would be brutely honest, showing her to be just as flawed as everyone else.; not a pandering puff piece.
